Hi Peter,
This is the custom tag I am using... Is this similar to what you were using?
============================================================================
===========
<cfif isdefined("attributes.inputstring")>
<cfset outputstring = attributes.inputstring>
<cfset outputstring = Replace(#outputstring#,chr(10), "<br>",
"ALL")>
<cfset outputstring = Replace(#outputstring#,chr(10)+chr(10),
"<br>", "ALL")>
<cfelse>
<b>No String Defined!!</b>
</cfif>
<cfset caller.outputstring = outputstring>
============================================================================

Subject: Re: Text formatting problem
Hi Jonathan -
I had a similar problem after a file had gone through a PLP, and I fixed
it by just replacing CHR10 with <BR> tags & CHR10+CHR10 with <P> tags --
even though the hex code shows that the CHR13 is in there, this seemed
to work well for me, give it a shot.
